Destructo - Grey Matter


4:56 minutes (4.53 MB)

Moody, laid back, dreamy, and somewhat jazzy, "Grey Matter" is an effective chillout track.

Hy Bound - BioRhythm


5:51 minutes (5.36 MB)

This track is some quality epic, cinematic orchestral stuff. Great attention to percussion, a strong string melody, harps, and a smattering of 'electronic' effects and processing.

Hy Bound - Bed of Knives


6:48 minutes (6.24 MB)

Bed of Knives (great title!) sounds like it belongs in one of the Prince of Persia games. Intricate breakbeats power a chugging guitar riff with a melody played by piano and ethnic instruments. Intense and impressive stuff.

Siamey - Battery Life


2:57 minutes (2.71 MB)

SGX - Amity [short edit]


4:49 minutes (4.41 MB)

This track has a slow, chunky beat, nice piano and string melodies, and a deep bass. It's nice. Full version can be found on Hero of the Grey Area.

SGX - Have No Tyrant


7:26 minutes (6.81 MB)

Thumping beats, crunchy breaks, angry synths, epic strings, deep bass. Yum yum. Hope you enjoy this track off of my upcoming album.

Audix - Star Wars Magnus Vir


5:37 minutes (7.72 MB)

Audix hits us with an epic trance rendition of classic Star Wars themes. He includes the main theme, the Imperial Death March, and Battle of the Heroes.

Audix - Christmas Epic


3:06 minutes (2.85 MB)

Audix brings together several Christmas themes in one of his signature epic trance tracks. Synths, piano, strings, beats, its all good.

SGX - But Underneath All That


7:30 minutes (12.05 MB)

This one sounds like a leftover from Hero of the Grey Area - big crunchy beat, atmospheric pads, orchestral and piano melodies. I'll likely not be returning to this style for a bit. Time to try new things, ya?

SGX - Coactive [Hollidayrain Trance Remix]


3:14 minutes (2.97 MB)

This is a pretty kickass trance remix by Hollidayrain of Coactive. We entered it in the August Ourstage.com competition.

Siamey - On The Move


3:30 minutes (3.21 MB)

This track comes from Siamey's upcoming album, "Going Away" which is a concept album where each track is written with certain video game scenes in mind. This song reminds me of overworld map music in an RPG, but Siamey has given it a very interesting twist with a synth bassline and a crunchy beat.

Destructo - i.transmit.this.transmission received


3:01 minutes (4.39 MB)

Destructo's rendition of SGX's "i.transmit.this" planned to be included with i.transmit.this EP along with the other remixes done by other artists, but he wasn't able to finish in time. Here it is, better late than never, for free download.
The track begins with an atmospheric piano section then evolves into a light jazzy motif with some improv electric guitar. Tasty!

Siamey - Exit The Forest Lands


1:23 minutes (1.28 MB)

Siamey gives us this quirky little upbeat track from his album, "Going Away." Blending light e-piano grooves with frenetic drum and bass beats, it is a brief but entertaining shot of audio.

Siamey - Suspicion


2:50 minutes (2.61 MB)

From Siamey's album, Going Away. Dark, shifty, mysterious groove with a phat, Rob Dougan-esque beat. Get sneakin'!

SGX - Lux Aeterna - Requiem for a Dream [SGX's Transient Mix]


5:07 minutes (7.04 MB)

This is my remix of that iconic song from the movie "Requiem for a Dream." You've probably heard it in some movie trailers too, such as the Lord of the Rings Two Towers trailer.

This mix is part drum and bass and part big beat, with orchestral elements similar to the original, and a nasty, very prominent bass. Enjoy!

Audix, Wil Deynes - Super Wonderful (Audix remix)


3:01 minutes (4.16 MB)

Pop-rock artist Wil Deynes contacted our Audix to put together a remix of his Ourstage-topping track, "Super Wonderful" and this is what Audix created. The remix is a catchy, bouncy, happy, and light electronica/pop concoction that will either lift your spirits or give you a cavity. It's not the normal Protagonist type release, but it is quality stuff and nice for a change.

Siamey - Sidewinder


3:58 minutes (3.64 MB)

If you've been following Siamey since before Protagonist you may have heard this yummy trance brew constructed with both contemporary trance sounds and a dash of chiptune synth. If so, check it out again. If not, check it out for the first time!

Hy Bound - Raze Hell


3:05 minutes (4.23 MB)

Dark, percussive, and moody, Hy Bound brings us some good movie trailer fodder tunage.

Zircon - Fiberoptics


3:01 minutes (2.77 MB)

To be available on Zircon's upcoming EP, "Mass Media Constant", here is Fiberoptics! Frantic dnb breaks, distorted growling bass, and syncopated synths come together in a sparkling electronic composite.

Audix - GoldenEye Source: OST - Life of a Spy


3:46 minutes (5.17 MB)Life of a Spy is an awesome take on the good old James Bond theme. With a great percussion groove, deliberate pace, strings, and a bit of atmosphere, the track really exudes the spy attitude. This track is a part of the recently released GoldenEye Source OST which Audix worked on with another artist known as Basstronix. You can download the .zip of the whole OST here. Below is a video preview of the whole OST.

Malcos - Lightspeed


3:22 minutes (3.08 MB)

Malcos joins us with a track from his upcoming album. Lightspeed is a sexy RnB electronica track with butter-smooth vocals from Malcos himself. We haven't had anything that sounds like this on Protagonist yet and I'm looking forward to more.

Audix - After Hour Martini


4:56 minutes (6.77 MB)

This is the second track we are releasing from Audix's contribution to the Goldeneye Source project. This is a dancy take on the classic Bond theme with a stylish synth solo section I'm really digging.

Guest Release: Flexstyle - Imago Deo


5:36 minutes (12.82 MB)

Our first guest release on Protagonist Records! I think you guys will enjoy this slick epic breaks style track that reminds me of some of Zircon's work. Coming in with some nice atmosphere and delayed acoustic guitars, Imago Deo then builds to intense levels with a slightly repetitive but effective melody and churning bassline.

Check out more Flexstyle

Flexstyle recently released his latest album, "Elements of Creation" for free download. You can currently grab it at this link.

Malcos - Who Knows


3:34 minutes (6.38 MB)

Your slick funk delivery is here. Keyboard riffs, jazzy flute, and plucked and bass string instruments, and a heavy beat come together in Malcos' "Who Knows" from the instrumental side of his new album, Day Dreams.

Malcos - Don't tell me


3:38 minutes (3.4 MB)

Sweet beats over a syncopated synth bed and catchy vocals!

Zircon - Photosynthesis (OS Edit)


2:43 minutes (3.77 MB)

Great breaks, gated pads, string melodies, and chopped acoustic guitars bring us a very BT-esque track. This is from Zircon's original soundtrack to the upcoming XBLA Community Game, "Fittest."

SGX - Span


4:19 minutes (4.98 MB)

Epic melodic trance with a piano lead and growling, pumping bassline. This song, or a version of it will be included in the Xbox Live Arcade Indie Game I am working on with a small team. The illustration in the tag is from our artist, Alayna Lemmer.

Pollicer - Angel


7:06 minutes (9.76 MB)

Pollicer joins Protagonist with this uplifting epic trance track. It's got a nice ebb and flow, with epic buildups and breakdowns. Look for another Pollicer track next week, then the release of his album, "Songs for Those Who Yearn."

Pollicer - Alive (feat. Jillian Goldin)


5:38 minutes (5.17 MB)Off of Pollicer's upcoming "Songs For Those Who Yearns" comes "Alive", a track that reminds me a bit of a Shiny Toy Guns feeling with a slightly 80's sounding synth riff and superb female vocals from Jillian Goldin. Epic and a bit groovy, we hope you dig it.

Flickerfall - Metro Underground


4:42 minutes (6.5 MB)

Electro-pop with female vocals, Flickerfall joins Protagonist with their catchy, "Metro Underground" off their upcoming EP release, "Delayed Reaction." Stay tuned for more details on the album!

PhiJayy brings us a pretty unique piece of melodic and upbeat breakbeat goodness. Check them out at phijayy.com.

Malcos - More than just one night


3:42 minutes (4.25 MB)

Malcos comin' back at ya with a new track and a new album on the way. More Than Just One Night is a DnB-leaning piece with some of his vocals. It's got the trademark Malcos smooth you're familiar with from his album Daydreams with a big beat and synths. Grab it!

Guest Release - Platonist - Beaten I Musiken


4:23 minutes (6.79 MB)

My buddy Platonist from over at other netlabel, Reunion, brings us a catchy, intricate, and fun jam in his tracker/somewhat chippy style trappings.

Malcos - The other side


4:10 minutes (4.77 MB)

A second free track from Malcos' album Ascension, The Other Side is another venture into great drum n bass beats and RnB style vocals. Acoustic guitar chords and plucked strings throughout keep the track relatively light on the synth and complement the vocal melodies.

wauterboi - Message to Nobody


4:55 minutes (7.54 MB)

De-tuned melancholy piano, grit atmospherics, crunched beats, and a raw bass synth come together for a tasty ambient industrial groove. This is part of wauterboi's free four-song EP of tracks from his recent full album release, Null. Download the Conversations With Myself EP HERE.

jayyAustin - Frame Skip


5:15 minutes (12.03 MB)

jayyAustin, half of the phijayy duo that has submitted before, brings us a slick progressive house track. Jay takes his sweet time developing the track, but it never is boring and really takes you places. Great song! Enjoy your holidays!

John Torkington - The Silence


6:06 minutes (8.99 MB)

Track three of John Torkington's latest album, "No Headphones Required", "The Silence" showcases vocalist Katie Hardy along with the musical stylings of John Torkington in a lush, clean sound-scape. This is a great track to chill out to; the leisurely progression ebbs and flows naturally and envelops you.

Hollidayrain - Twenty Mile Road


8:19 minutes (9.61 MB)

HR, skilled electronic music producer/huge Colorado Rockies fan (seriously, all of his pages have almost more Rockies content than content relating to his music!) brings us a high-energy melodic trance track from his album, Parka. Trance standby arpeggios, syncopated saw synths, epic buildups, and dreamy piano leads come together for a solid trance experience. Check out HR on Soundclick and grab Parka for free.

Kwerk - Obdurate


4:17 minutes (5.94 MB)

The synthy, mallet line featured in this ambient/industrial piece strongly reminds me of the theme that plays in the PS2 game ICO when you die. That was quite a helpful association, wasn't it? This is a dark, yet beautiful, somewhat minimal piece of music. Check out more Kewk on his myspace.

Bankai - Party Harder


4:31 minutes (11.24 MB)

Woah! We haven't had anything like this on Protagonist before, and it is awesome. Crazy aggressive electro chopped up breaks, defective synths, wild vocals (avoid this if you don't like colorful language). This is the first track off of Bankai's freeTeen Slut Pimp Strut EP. It looks like all his music is free. How noble! Check him out. I am!

Flexstyle - Chain Reaction


5:00 minutes (11.48 MB)

The first track off of his new A Sense of Urgency 2009 album, Chain Reaction comes at ya with a groovin', plodding, almost swingin' standout beat, dirty, lofi bass, and syncopated synths for a pretty killer album-starter. Stream his album, or name your price to download it HERE.

Navi - Monsoon Season


3:46 minutes (5.42 MB)

Navi hits us with some slick hiphop and rapping. Great beat, buzzing bass synth, slick scratching. Love it. Monsoon Season is off of Navi's recently released album, Grayscale which is downloadable for free. The rest is similarly awesome.

Platonist - Ezkalate


7:42 minutes (11.94 MB)

Developing slowly from a pretty minimal, dry, piece of electronica, to a full trancy/club track with a lofi, chiptune-esque slant, it takes a while to get going, but getting there is great. Check it out.

Mnemosyne - Evisceration


4:09 minutes (9.59 MB)

Mnemosyne hits us with a Nu-Style Gabba track. Sweet kick modulations, awesome melodies, and some chopped up vocals. Warning: Explicit Lyrics. While this isn't a style I care for myself, let me know wether you want more like this on Protagonist. Put a comment here, or hit me on twitter: @sgxmusic.

Hollidayrain - Thursday Night on Pearl Street


8:52 minutes (16.24 MB)

Hollidayrain is giving us a lot of really well produced trancy/club stuff. Let's start off our weekend with another! This progressive house track launches with a long dj intro but soon gets into a fun groove with some very upbeat synths and melodies that sound straight out of a 16-bit Sonic the Hedgehog game. Great stuff.

Malcos - When it's gone


3:51 minutes (8.82 MB)Here's another free track from Malcos' recent album, Ascension available here on Protagonist for $5.99! Love this DnB beat with his smooth RnB vocals and jazzy piano. If you haven't checked out Ascension yet, you are really missing out.

Unctuous - Hypersonic


7:07 minutes (12.7 MB)

Some epic breaks style comin' at ya. Unctuous spends five or so minutes rocking some speedy breaks, and unloads a pretty badass breakdown section and climax to finish it off.

Project Ruori - March II


1:57 minutes (2.37 MB)

Probably not the type of stuff you'll hear here a lot on Protagonist, but I thought it was interesting. Freeform jazz/ambient electronica recorded live. Quick, mellow groove. This track is from their live album 404 Live at River Road available at cdbaby.com

Vitz - Death Hill


6:24 minutes (8.82 MB)

Hope everyone is having a chill Friday. If not, take a listen to this smooth ambient IDM track from Vitz. Etherial pads, chime-esque synth melodies, and a cool slow breakbeat percussion element come together for a really dreamy, groovy piece.

DJ SymBiotiX - Orange Sky


9:15 minutes (21.18 MB)

DJ SBX hits us with a slick progressive trance track featuring some chippy synths, syncopated saw bass, piano melodies, and the traditional trance DJ long intro and outros. Happy Monday.

12 Followers/Meteo Xavier - Ornamekias - A Slight Wave From the Hill Above


6:52 minutes (12.81 MB)

Stressful week so far? Chill out and be transported with this atmospheric piece from 12 Followers/Meteo Xavier.

Great pads, delayed synths, and a subtle constant kick beat keeps things feeling in motion.

Pollicer - Time to Say Goodbye

wauterboi - Release


3:49 minutes (7.5 MB)

Some of wauterboi's work is beginning to remind me a bit of NIN. This track has massively overdriven rock drums, electric guitar, screeching synths, buzzing bassline, and a very NIN-like delayed ambient piano bed. If you dig this track, check out wauterboi's Null EP here on Protagonist.

binster - Dick You're Fired


6:08 minutes (8.45 MB)

Binster - Icon (Long Mix)


5:59 minutes (13.7 MB)

This is not a new Binster track by a long stretch, but it is a favorite of mine. LOVE IT! It is a remix of music from the PS2 game ICO. Breakbeats combine with synths, ethnic instruments, and exciting builds and progression for one of the coolest things I've heard out of the OCRemix scene. I believe this version is different/updated from the OCRemix version as well, so BONUS!

12 Followers/Meteo Xavier - Palle Town - Evening


3:20 minutes (3.87 MB)

12 Followers/Meteo Xavier brings us another laid back, atmospheric track containing some interesting synth melody work. It sounds like Playstation-era Japanese RPG music with a synthy twist. Interesting work here.

Vitz - Carbide


6:33 minutes (12.03 MB)

Stick with it through the long intro and you'll find a pretty evil sounding bass with some no-nonsense drums. Vitz hits us with a textured and heavy track. Really digging these sounds. It sounds like it could be at home in one of the The Matrix soundtracks.

3:23 minutes (7.83 MB)

Really interesting, techy, dark stuff with slick beats here. Cryptovariable himself describes it as, "Flowing, warped hip-hop beats and synths portraying the 'random walk with drift' stochastic process that life often seems to be." Sounds accurate!

Flickerfall - Us Monkeys Together (In a Snow-Bound Land)

Hollidayrain - Nicobar (Original Mix)


7:06 minutes (6.56 MB)

Self described as a "crazy indian sounding hard progressive trance track!", Hollidayrain brings us yet another hum-dinger (yeah!).
I've been a bit lax on 3X/week updates recently, partly because of time constraints building the new webstore and finishing my new SGX album, but also because submissions have been slow. If you know any killer indie electronic artists that might want a bit more plays, send em my way. I mean HR, is great and all, but who wants to hear him every week? I mean, bleeeeh! (Those was jokes!)

Belmont - Here We Go Again!


5:02 minutes (11.56 MB)

Groovy electro here for your Friday. Belmont hits us with a good track. I'm cursed: whenever I hear this sort of electro beat and bass synth I think of cigar-smoking puppets.

Cryptovariable - A Crisis of Ascension


3:46 minutes (8.63 MB)

Spooky, ambient, industrial groove from Cryptovariable that constantly evolves and changes itself. Interesting listen.

Hollidayrain - Nuclear Winter


6:06 minutes (5.59 MB)

HR throws some DnB stuff at us. Sounds like Pendulum with BIG kicks and snares, and similar Pendulum-style melodies. Some progressive trance-ish stuff slips in as well.

Stargame - Pain for You


5:11 minutes (4.78 MB)

Stargame brings us a solid epic trancy type tune with his own vocals and electric guitar from a friend.

Super Mirage - Dance Hall


4:00 minutes (9.26 MB)

Here's some fun indie/disco/electronica stuff for you this fine Monday afternoon. Cool stuff from Super Mirage.

835 - Sound_Of_Violence_(835-remix)


4:35 minutes (10.52 MB)

Not sure what genre to describe this as. Interesting, chill remix with male vocals from 835 x.

Michael Birch (Flexstyle) - BT - Force of Gravity (Flexstyle's Chilloniq Mix)


6:57 minutes (12.82 MB)

Chill, melodic, laid back, beautiful. Flexstyle really delivers a sweet BT remix! It gets moving in the later sections. I'm really digging it. Yum!

Cryptovariable/The IllumiNotMe - Faded Glory


3:18 minutes (4.54 MB)

Cryptovariable/The IllumiNotMe submit this textured, atmospheric, and somewhat dark industrial-ish type track. He comments on his track, "The tragic absurdity of warfare in the modern age; enlightenment hijacked by pandemonium; chlorine gas calmly wafting by a French villa riddled by machine-gun fire." So there ya go.

Super Mirage - Wasting Away (Baby MJ Remix)


3:50 minutes (8.92 MB)

Happy Friday! Time to kick-start the weekend. Sorry for the slow updates - I've been mega busy finalizing the new SGX album and prepping the new sgxmusic.com. Enough self-promotion; there will be plenty of that in the coming weeks as the album launches! Onto the track at hand.

This is a fun housey/dancey remix of the Super Mirage track Wasting Away. Get your disco ball!

Pyroshock - High Current


3:18 minutes (5.35 MB)

Pyroshock, the man whose artist name rhymes with Bioshock (how about that Bioshock: Infinite trailer, all you gamers out there?!), comes at us with a tight jam. Nothing terribly complicated going on here, but a solid, broken beat, buzzing bassline (an SGX favorite), piano, and intricate synth line. Good, groovin', atmospheric stuff. This track is off Pyroshock's pay-what-you-like EP An Integral Part. Check it out.

Hollidayrain - Deep Introspection (Syron Remix)


9:40 minutes (22.83 MB)

Very cool! Syron has remixed the Hollidayrain track Deep Introspection (featured previously on Protagonist) into a really groovy, jazzy, and epic housey/trancy concoction. Love that Kenny G sax. It works.

Sectra - Take Control


3:57 minutes (9.06 MB)

Newcomer Sectra is apparently a 14 year old! This is a pretty solid atmospheric track that eventually busts out a heavy dubstep beat and bassline.

Cryptovariable - Verdant Autocatharsis


4:41 minutes (10.81 MB)

This is an interesting, kinda industrial, IDM-ish track that starts out a bit scatter-brained, but soon gets into a groove with a catchy synth line and progression, plus a big, heavy beat. Sounds a bit like some 16-bit videogame music updated by Justice. Check out this Cryptovariable track.

Malcos - Honesty


3:23 minutes (4.74 MB)One of my favorite off of Malcos' new album, Electronic Reality (available now!!!), "Honesty" is seriously catchy as hell. This thing grooves with fun vocals, bouncy synth lines, arpeggios, and a bassline that's bringing up memories of Sonic from the 16-bit days. Killer.

SGX - soulsight [Soul Vision remix by torukine]


2:40 minutes (2.45 MB)Just got this new remix submitted today by torukine.  Not mind-blowingly different, but a cool new beat has been added, some different chords.  Tasty.
